Purse peek and weak apologies



You don't have to tell me, I know. August was a very very very long time ago. Any excuse will sound weak. One of them is that it is very very difficult to take full-body outfit shots of yourself. Tripods, self-timers, places well-lit enough but also long enough to fit my entire body into the frame... I need a live-in photographer. If only my dog Sadie had opposable thumbs.

The good news is that I will hopefully (crossing fingers and toes, here) be doing some fashion videos in the near future. If not, then making a serious serious effort to dedicate time to this fashion blog as well as my beauty blog. But again, the photo dilemma. Perhaps you'll just have to deal with some... experimental... photography for a while.

In the meantime, I bought two new purses while in Florida (and a new wristlet but these are much more exciting). Just now realizing that I should have mirrored one of these shots instead of having both on the left. Oh well. Details. They are both small envelope-ish, chain strap styles, which is a new concept to me and utterly useless in the winter time. But come spring, these will be in full rotation.

I will write soon. Hold me to it.

Bedroom Decor: Functional and Chic

Over the past few months I've been redecorating my bedroom, effectively turning it into a "big girl" room. When we first moved here, I painted it lime green, then bright orange. Now it is a lovely light brown/clay colour. Very calming, very neutral, and just what I've been wanting. So I've been slowly picking up pieces to decorate/accessorize with, and this fabulous wire judy is my latest acquisition.


I found this at HomeSense for $60, which is a great price considering I'll have this forever. I can paint it to go with any room, and the top is detachable from the stand for easy storage.


Loving the metal details- and all these loops give more options for hanging things off of it! I've just been sticking with purses and a hat so far though.


Really happy with this! It's a classic, yet unexpected room decoration with a modern twist (since this isn't really for sizing clothing!).
